A Taste of Honey
It was late,
And I did not know.
I was living in a dream,
And I did not know.
Nothing was finished,
Really, I should know.
Everything was unreal,
-Now I know.
Time was running out
And I did not know,
I was dazed, intoxicated
And I should know,
I was drifting along unawares
But I did not know
‘Cause my view was blurred by love,
Now I know.
When I met her
I did not know
I was carried far, too far
I did not know
This was forbidden heaven,
I should know
Heaven is not for me,
- Now I know.
It seemed to be for ever
Yet I did not know
How short for-ever was.
I did not know
Love’s flood died out.
I did not know
How expelled from Paradise felt
Now I know.
How dreary life can be,
I did not know.
I had a taste of honey,
And did not know
That taste of honey – was my last,
Now I know.
It was late,
And I did not know.
I was living in a dream,
And I did not know.
Nothing was finished,
Really, I should know.
Everything was unreal,
-Now I know.
Time was running out
And I did not know,
I was dazed, intoxicated
And I should know,
I was drifting along unawares
But I did not know
‘Cause my view was blurred by love,
Now I know.
When I met her
I did not know
I was carried far, too far
I did not know
This was forbidden heaven,
I should know
Heaven is not for me,
- Now I know.
It seemed to be for ever
Yet I did not know
How short for-ever was.
I did not know
Love’s flood died out.
I did not know
How expelled from Paradise felt
Now I know.
How dreary life can be,
I did not know.
I had a taste of honey,
And did not know
That taste of honey – was my last,
Now I know.
